  1. TLDR: In random games, if you go AS, you are hurting your team. At best, you can greatly reduce impact of enemy CV, but every CV will get 1-2 strikes through your defenses and do much more dmg than you ever can. The only other advantage is spotting, but you will not get any experience for that and you have to hope that your teammates are of any good (which is usually not true).

     

    Not to mention that AS is boring as f..., requires little to no skill and gives very little exp.


  2. USS Enterprise, Hornet (must-have), Wasp

    Mighty Mo (could be premium / reward Iowa), USS Pennsylvania

     

    IJN Kaga, Unryu, Soryu (generally lots of famous carriers there, could be entire second line of IJN CVs)

    IJN Ise (after conversion), Mogami after conversion would be also sweet. You could build entire line of IJN cruiser-carrier hybrids up to a decent tier.

    IJN Mutsu (prem/reward)


  3. I know she had that setup at some point (tested her with it in CBT) but if my memory isn't off that oine got already removed for a 1./3/2 setup at some point before they removed that one for the 3/1/2 fighter setup.

    They change them so often and I was still at Hiryuu when those changes happened during OBT/after release that I'm slowly losing the overview of all the setups we had in the past :unsure:

    Shokaku had 0/3/3 for a "long" time, after It was removed only 2/2/2 was viable, I don't think Shokaku ever had 1/3/2 setup. I unlocked Taiho shortly before this change, so I am pretty sure about this :)


  4. Im kinda glad Im no longer playing. It looks they give less and less sh*t about quality of their patches. It started with 4.1 rolling out with so many ridiculous well known bugs, but WG was like... meh, fixing bugs is for noobs, better release Trollpitz in bundle for million euro.


  5.  

    The changes are more like a buff.

    The big circle was a bug, and the torps run now parallel instead of spreading out.

     

    But I was reading something about arming time nerf and speed nerf for IJN torps. Is that really true? That would remove the only advantage that IJN CVs actually have - ability to hunt DDs and CAs effectively.

  6. Looking back... I've spent quite lot of money on WoT and WoWs, been running prem. account pretty much all the time + some premiums and lots of gold. First time this bundle-whoring pissed me off was the Berlin trio in WoT (still bought IS2...). But it is now getting ridiculous. To be honest, I feel very much like CloakingDonkey (who quit WoWs because of this WG whoring), I don't really want to play if they continue with this strategy. I have some gold left, now I've won some gold from that old Donkey's replay contest and that should get me through if I ever decide to play couple of battles. But beside that... GTFO WG.

  7. So basically, the SN DD's are USN DD's but better? I mean, they are both mainly gun users with short range torps (ignoring top two tiers in both lines) with poor concealment compared to IJN making them rely on speed and maneuverability to survive. Only that the SN versions are more survivable, more maneuverable, faster and have significantly more powerful guns. Also, the torps are super fast and deal massive damage, making ambushes much more devastating. Can't really come up with a situatio where a USN DD would be better, makes it feel sooo much better having gone with the USN line. Not only have we had to put up with being nerfed into the ground and playing UP ships since OBT start hoping for them to at some point getting fixed, now a line comes along that does everything better, how likely is it now that our line will ever be fixed? 

     

    USN DDs seem to have better AA (didn't see DPS values yet), but especially panic button is kinda big deal. Although use of that AA is arguable.

     

    edit: And not sure what about smoke. Since they buffed smoke for USN DDs, it looks like that smoke has also become a balancing factor for DDs.


  8. Hype ? Hype ? Here is hype :

     

     

    When making such video, author should always click on the second hull. Because right now values shown in that table on the right are for stock hull. And top hull increases AA and rudder shift time. This might give bad impression about these two important aspects.

  9. good stuff

     

    Can you do the same for german CAs? Im personally more interested in cruisers. If the stats are already posted somewhere on the forum, please point me in the right direction :medal:

  10. Even if it was true and that scout plane was replaced with fighter plane, then fighter plane > scout plane @Murmansk.

     

    With that 4-point skill that increases range, your range is more than enough. When you use scout, you will struggle hitting even the slowest BBs, because they will be so far away... Oh and btw Murmansk is so ridiculously broken and OP that if it was just lil stronger it would fly at synchronous orbit and shoot photon torpedoes.
